Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

1 cup cold brew coffee (or cooled-down strongly brewed coffee)
3–5 fresh mint sprigs with leaves (keep the stems for more flavor)
2 tablespoons hot water
1–2 teaspoons brown sugar (adjust to taste)
Ice cubes (as needed)
2–4 tablespoons heavy cream (optional)
Extra mint for garnish

Instructions

Muddle the Mint and Sugar: In a glass or shaker, add the fresh mint leaves along with the brown sugar. Gently muddle the mint using a muddler or the back of a spoon to release its essential oils and flavors. Then pour in the hot water and mix again to help dissolve the sugar completely and infuse the mint flavor into the liquid.
Add Coffee and Lime: Pour in the cooled brewed coffee to the mint mixture. Stir or shake well to combine all the flavors. For added richness and frothiness, add in the heavy cream and shake again thoroughly.
Prepare the Serving Glass: Fill a separate glass with ice cubes to chill your drink properly.
Pour and Garnish: Pour the mint-infused iced coffee mixture over the ice-filled glass. Garnish with a fresh sprig of mint to add aroma and visual appeal. Stir gently and serve immediately for a refreshing experience.

Notes

Use freshly brewed cold brew coffee for the best flavor, but strongly brewed regular coffee cooled down works well too.
Adjust the amount of sugar and heavy cream to suit your taste preference or dietary needs.
The mint stem contains a lot of flavor, so include it when muddling for a stronger mint infusion.
For a vegan version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream or almond milk.
If you don’t have a muddler, the back of a spoon or a rolling pin works well for crushing mint leaves.
This recipe can be doubled or tripled easily for parties or multiple servings.
